So yeah, Go-Busters. One of the Sentai I saved for the last 10 I watch as part of playing catch-up (started in 2018 with Lupinranger vs Patranger, and then started watching the past 41 seasons as they took my fancy, or as the subs became readily available).

Honestly, I don’t quite see what the hype was. As I mentioned back when I reviewed the VS movie with Gokaiger, its second to last on my full list (only its immediate predecessor is lower, and that’s purely for the reason Go-Busters isn’t aiming for some rather shallow nostalgia, and I find the characters here slightly more likeable*). It probably has something to do with Ryuki being fresh on my mind, and probably something to do with how I didn’t like the show’s aesthetic (it just looks boring. Even Gokaiger’s had character).

And speaking of characters, I found Enter to be the best of the day one characters. By contrast, I didn’t like Yoko or Messiah at all (the former because she came off as too bratty, the latter because of his utter lack of a discernible personality), and everyone else I found bland.

*Another reason is that the show pulls a Hibiki in the second half, which briefly made me more invested.
